Ch1: why does the Buchanan house seem so sterile? Beautiful, sure, but like...empty almost, even if there are people in it. Maybe trying to say the Buchanan's are empty people too?

Why is Tom so blatantly obvious about having a side chick? Like if I had a side chick I wouldn't tell anyone, or have open conversations about it. Tom literally goes and takes Nick to go meet her.

# data[].attributes.body
Why does Tom get upset with Myrtle and break her nose when she started to talk about his wife Daisy?

# data[].attributes.body
I like that Nick lives up to his father's advice and doesn't push it aside. This kind of shows that he cares and listens to advice.

# data[].attributes.body
Nick that narrators take at the beginning of the story writes himself to be very kind in that ways that he looks at the world. It is clear he sees himself as better, and wants so bad to look like he is not like the rich side of the town that he came from. But rather he would be like to be like Gatsby who he sees as being everything he wants to be in life.

Does Daisy know Tom is cheating and if she does why is Daisy okay with Tom cheating on her? It's like she knows and he knows she knows but they don't talk about it. I mean ignorance is a bliss right? But why does she stay? Does she think she can't do any better than him? Is she just staying for the money and the sense of comfort? They don't have a very good relationship but they stay together even though they are cold and distant with each other.

Ch2: Why does Tom break her nose it was just so unnecessary like their was no reason it was a complete overreaction on his part and it just made no sense to me why he decided to punch her face and in the process break her nose.

# data[].attributes.body
At the end of chapter 3, what is Nick's relationship with Jordan Baker? They seem to be close and at one point Nick even says he thinks he loves her, but he also says that she is very dishonest. He doesn't seem to trust her and thinks he is the only honest person there. Even though they are close and go out a lot, is it just a friendship or a bit more?

Ch2: How come Mr. Wilson was not happy when buying Mrs. Wilson a puppy? He seemed upset when paying the man the money and added the snarky comment, "Go buy 10 more with the money." He is buying it for his wife, so he should be happy doing it.

Myrtle gets outspoken about her life, Tom gets upset about this then punches her breaking her nose. This seems a little over the top, so I think I missed something here,

# data[].attributes.body
Tom seems like an interesting character to me. Seems as if he's very two faced. He acts like he's above people, like hes the best of the best. He lies to hi
s wife and is cheating on her.

# data[].attributes.body
Why would someone like Nick, a man who is moral and honest be so conflicted about Jordan, a person who seems to be so careless and dishonest? Throughout the novel he doesn't seem to be enjoying himself around dishonest people like Tom and Myrtle but he seems to be very conflicted when it comes to Jordan and even Gatsby.

# data[].attributes.body
There is a point in the party where he wants to leave but he is super intrigued about the group's chaos in the party. Such as how Myrtle's nose got broken by Tom and he continued to watched it. I think it's a little ironic?

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like Nick doesn't have his own passion on what he wants to do in life. Like when he joined the bond business he joins just because everyone else in his family does it or when he participates in the Great war.

# data[].attributes.body
Just found it interesting on how many of Gatsby's guests don't know what he looks like and don't really know who he is. He is some mysterious man, and then he so casually mentions that he is Gatsby when talking to Nick.

# data[].attributes.body
jay gatsby is an interesting character, he is very rich but nobody knows where his wealth comes from. there are a lot of rumors going around about jay this tells us that nobody really knows him. in chapter 3 he hosts a big lavish party, but is found on the outskirts of the party and not talking to any of his guests. why is he so mysterious, why does he have these parties and yet not be socially active in them. where did he get so rich, where does his wealth come from.

Chapter 2: why is Tom so excited to show Nick his mistress? isn't it supposed to be a secret to be cheating on someone?

It is interesting to me that Nick hates everything that Gatsby stands for, yet he still looks up to him and is intrigued by him.

# data[].attributes.body
why does Tom force nick to follow him?

# data[].attributes.body
Why did Nick see a green light when he saw Gatsby alone on the dock?

# data[].attributes.body
i feel like jay Gatsby is a person who would keep everything inside of him like his thoughts or comments, i mean he is really a bit weird.

# data[].attributes.body
Gatsby is. very rich and lives in a. big house but nobody knew what he looked like. I find it kind of interesting how he remembers Nick Caraway from the war and invites him to catch up.

# data[].attributes.body
In chapter 2, Tom Buchanan becomes aggressive towards Myrtle for mentioning his wife Daisy by punching her in the face. Even though he was the one that cheated on her and does not even care or have any guilt for his actions.

# data[].attributes.body
i find it sort of weird how Jay keeps himself away from the party. very separated from all the action and doesnt interact with any of his guests.

# data[].attributes.body
The way nick interprets his fathers advice by thinking he's better than the people that are less wealthy than they are is interesting

# data[].attributes.body
Nick Carraway is the main character who does a lot of thinking and has different ways of interpreting many different things.

Ch3: How come Gatsby is quite on how much money he has? He has plenty of things, but no one knows where his money comes from. Maybe he is hiding from people because he does not want people to know where he got his money from.

Tom being aggressive toward Daisy when he punches her in the face and thinking its okay.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like Gatsby's character is somewhat mysterious. When Nick arrived to his party, he had no idea he was talking to Gatsby. It was there first time talking yet Gatsby didn't introduce himself. So I think he's either mysterious or a little rude

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like Gatsby is symbolic of "new money" because no one knows how he attained his wealth and everyone keeps spreading rumors that he obtained them illegally.

# data[].attributes.body
when Tom is being disrespectful to daisy by hitting her really set me off because he should know right from wrong and when he thinks hitting her is somehow right.

# data[].attributes.body
Why does Tom get so mad when Daisy's name is brought up. He shouldn't have broken Myrtles nose just because she brought up her name.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is Tom just starting to care about Daisy and where she goes? Also why has he just started to give notice to the fact that Gatsby exists? Does he think there is something going on between Daisy and Gatsby? Or does he already know that they have a past?

# data[].attributes.body
Gatsby is so obsessed with Daisy and the past that he doesn't realize that she's changed. He changed his whole life in order for her to be the center and she still chose Tom over him. She chose wealth over him and even though he is now rich, she is still with Tom. Why doesn't Gatsby realize that? He gets upset that she didn't enjoy his party, the thought of her having changed never crossing his mind.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is Gatsby okay with Tom coming over to his house. Tom married the woman Gatsby loves so shouldn't there be some kind of conflict between the two of them?

# data[].attributes.body
DId Daisy and Jay do anything together when Nick left them alone in the room at Nick's house? They seemed to have some sort of connection when they are together. How they get kinda flirty with each other and it makes Nick feel uncomfortable.

# data[].attributes.body
Why does Gatsby go through all of this over the top unnecessary things to get daisy's attention I feel like he could have done so many other things then buying a mansion and a fake dinner.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is Daisy so easy to convince? I know she's shallow and only cares about money and status but why does she have no regards for her actual feelings or whats good for her? I don't understand why she's so dumb about it

# data[].attributes.body
The part where Gatsby accepts the invitation, but where he does not understand how insincerity/ not polite it is. He is socially clueless most of the time I believe.

# data[].attributes.body
Is Gatsby telling Nick the truth about his past? And if so, why does it seem so unrealistic. Some of the things he claims that happened to him sound too good to be true.

# data[].attributes.body
Thought it was interesting hearing about Daisy and Gatsby's past, how they were in love. And now seeing how Gatsby still likes her to the point of moving to be close to her. Wondering if she will end up like Tom and become unfaithful in their marriage.

# data[].attributes.body
We find out the Gatby's birth name is James Gatz. It said that he changed his name because his dad was a poor farmer. I feel like changing his name disassociated him from his family even more making him more lonely.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is Gatsby so okay with Tom? Like he invites him over to his house, and is very nice to him, but Tom literally took Daisy away from him. Weird.

# data[].attributes.body
Why does Gatsby keep trying to go and relive his past. He is doing all these crazy things to try and get Daisy to fall in love with him again. Gatsby refuses to move on and doesn't acknowledge that she chose Tom over him and is actually married now. whats so special about daisy and why does he feel like he needs to be with her?

# data[].attributes.body
Why does Nick go along with this whole thing he shouldn't care that Gatsby used to be with Daisy it makes no sense to me why he would make himself a part of their weird relationship.

# data[].attributes.body
why does tom dislike gatsby so much? does he know about his and daisy's past? Is he jealous that they were "friendly" with each other at the party? Tom is quite contradicting because he is cheating on daisy yet gets jealous of gatsby.

# data[].attributes.body
Why does Gatsby like Daisy so much even after all these years, and why does he go so far as to buy a mansion across from where she lives just to have a chance with a married women?

# data[].attributes.body
Gatsby seems to be very clingy since he suddenly shows up at Nick's house to take him to lunch after their encounter at the party. This could possibly be because Gatsby does not seem to have very many friends to talk to so when he sees a chance for a friend, he runs with it. Plus he is still so obsessed with Daisy even though she is married.

# data[].attributes.body
The relationship between Nick and Gatsby seems to be father and son like. When nick tells Gatsby about his trip to New York Gatsby seems to really listen to him and care, but nick doesn't feel the same.

# data[].attributes.body
We find out more about Gatsby's True origin, like his original name was James Gatz, he grew up in North Dakota, and he dropped out of college. He then met Dan Cody and he took the name, Jay Gatsby, but why did he change his name? It is also interesting to note he didn't want to become a drinker after seeing what it did to Dan

# data[].attributes.body
We see a side of Gastby that is a lot more scared and it seem as if he much like Holden in this with not letting go of a past that could have been, but is not. Did Gatsby actually workhis way up this high just be with someone who is already married, and has rehected him in the past? The fear of never being with Daisy is coming to him.

# data[].attributes.body
why does Gatsby disappear and then come walking in as if he went for a walk?

# data[].attributes.body
Why does Nick not care as much as he should about Gatsby and Daisy's relationship if they both do love each other but Daisy choses to still stays with Tom?

# data[].attributes.body
Why does Gatsby get so anxious to impress Daisy at the party when she's already married. Like Tom could beat him up if he tried anything so why would he anticipate something to go down between him and Daisy?

# data[].attributes.body
why is Gatsby so obsessed with controlling how everything looks at Nicks house? it is because he wants it to look good for Daisy, but why is he so controlling like this? why does he feel like he needs to show off for her? and come off so fake?

# data[].attributes.body
How come Tom wants to protect Daisy from Gatsby, even though Tom is cheating on Daisy himself? It seems very hypocritical of him to do so. Like it clearly is not working between them two, so why don't they both just divorce and it would make them feel a lot better with someone they actually love.

# data[].attributes.body
So all of a sudden Tom starts treating Daisy like he cares about her?? What changed this? Does he feel threatened by Gatsby?

# data[].attributes.body
When Nick walked in on Daisy crying, why was Gatsby fine? not a smudge of a tear on him. I thought it was supposed to be an emotional moment for both?

# data[].attributes.body
Why did Daisy decide to marry Tom if she was so in love with Gatsby? If jay and Daisy had such an amazing relationship before he left for the war, wouldn't she have waited for him to come back instead of lying to herself and marry Tom?

# data[].attributes.body
Nick just gets more and more obsessed with Gatsby.  I thinks its kinda weird but entertaining to read. He's observes everything that gatsby does through like a weird lense. And he's always soo descriptive when it comes to Gatsby's actions.

# data[].attributes.body
Tom is becoming more loving towards Daisy. Is it maybe because Tom is realizing Daisy isnt normal and is leaning more towards Jay? Is the relationship slowly getting ruined by the affairs becoming more open? therefore Tom wants to save it.

# data[].attributes.body
I think its cool how he

Is Nick cool with being or I feel as if he is being used by Gatsby to get to Daisy. I know he seems irritated some but how does his view on Gatsby change over the course of Daisy now being in the picture

Why does Daisy continue to be indnial even though she is aware that she has been being cheated on. She is lowering herself and why does she do so?
